Yeah, and the shutter speed.

Lack of any rolling shutter effect...actually what in this shot IS in focus?

Aside from photo shop or darkroom trickery this could have been done in camera with double exposure.

Yeah this is pretty obviously fake

If the -ito suffix in Spanish means "small", then the existence of "el mosquito" implies the existence of a larger "el mosco".

That has some The Mist vibes going for it.

Allegedly, the ending differed from the book, but Stephen King preferred the ending to the movie due to its darker nature.

The movie ending struck me as senseless and unearned. The short story ended much better, in my opinion. Still on the run, no apparent end to the mist, no military showing up to save the day. Darker, in my book.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

That is a valid perspective.

It’s been 20+ years and I’ll never forget that ending. Totally messed up.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

The ending was most of why I made my wife watch the movie. She agreed it was worth it.

A community to discuss Cosmic Horror in it's many forms; books, films, comics, art, TV, music, RPGs, video games etc.

"cosmic horror... is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible more than gore or other elements of shock... themes of cosmic dread, forbidden and dangerous knowledge, madness, non-human influences on humanity, religion and superstition, fate and inevitability, and the risks associated with scientific discoveries... the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person, insignificance and powerlessness at the cosmic scale..."
